   This is a fantastic e-bike (made by Gazelle, a century-old Dutch company) that will probably do the trick. It gets me up the hills here, piece of cake: https://www.gazellebikes.com/en-us/gazelle-arroyo-c8-hmb-eli...

   That’s an interesting fact, but that doesn’t mean it couldn’t function as a transit-oriented city.

   Except Los Angeles is actually a pre-car city, and at one point had the biggest streetcar network in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_Railway With investment in public transit (i.e. approximately rebui

   Many European cities actually have very wide streets—they just choose to cede space for bikes, trams, buses, and wider sidewalks, instead of dedicating 100% of the streets to single-occupancy cars and car storage like we do. An example—Over

   My ELI5 interpretation: “Since good leadership is probably not going to come from the President, we’re going to create our own “mini-country” and provide good leadership within it.”

   I love this simple, HTML-only style website. Any chance you can recommmend a super-simple WYSIWYG way to make a site like this (for a layman who knows basic HTML but would rather not mess with it)?

   This is awesome. I can see a lot of artists flocking to this who want to sell their work but are overwhelmed by Etsy.

    Damn, I’m about to go to Mexico City—was planning to stay for a few months, but I hate dirty air. Is it like that all over the city, or just certain parts?

    Also, cars (illegally) driving and parking on the sidewalk is a huge problem in NYC: https://mobile.twitter.com/davecoion/status/1118969565449469...

    Right, because they have multiple dedicated lanes that are designed to drive in. Bikes and scooters don’t have the same luxury, so they have to choose between risking getting killed by riding among cars, or riding on the sidewalk. The solut

    Out of curiosity, why did you capitalize Airbnb like that? I see people capitalizing random stuff sometimes and don’t understand why.

    This is true of social media content, too. If a tweet/IG post/whatever you like disappears, you'll never see it again; you might not even know it disappeared until you remember it two years later, try to look for it, and can&

    I'm working on https://www.framedtweets.com — it's an easy, beautiful way to preserve and remember your favorite tweets forever (to save them from the internet's ephemerality).

    I think mass-produced contemporary art is actually a huge untapped market. For example, Framed Tweets https://framedtweets.com/ [1]. I think the same formula could be replicated by framing other internet content as artwork.
